Introduction
Introductie
At June 5 and 6 2nd INESPO 2010 will take place. This is an international
science and environment project olympiad that will take place for the second time.
Op 5 en 6 vindt 2nd INESPO 2010 plaats. Dit is een internationale wetenschaps- en milieuolympiade die dit jaar voor de tweede keer georganiseerd wordt.
Cosmicus Foundation came up with the idea to organize this olympiad.
Dutch organizations as Agentschap NL, Platform Bètatechniek, University of Amsterdam and Witte Tulp Foundation supported this initiative and
helped organisationally and financially.
INESPO is een initiatief van Stichting Cosmicus en is met medewerking
van Agentschap NL, Platform Bètatechniek, Universiteit van Amsterdam
en Stichting Witte Tulp georganiseerd.
INESPO is about worldwide environmental problems. All participating students have looked critically at these problems and tried to find solutions
based on research.
De mondiale milieuproblematiek staat centraal op dit evenement. Alle
deelnemende leerlingen hebben gekeken naar deze problematiek en
geprobeerd op basis van onderzoek een oplossing te vinden voor één
van deze problemen.
The event takes place at the Science Park in Amsterdam. For two days
long 150 international students from thirty countries will present their projects. Besides that, about hundred Dutch students will show the public
their solutions for environmental problems. A competent jury will examine
the projects and select the winners.
Het tweedaagse evenement vindt plaats op het Science Park in Amsterdam. Op deze twee dagen zullen circa 150 buitenlandse scholieren vanuit
dertig landen hun projecten presenteren. Circa 150 Nederlandse scholieren nemen daarnaast deel aan de olympiade om de jury en het bezoekend publiek hun oplossingen voor milieuvraagstukken te prestenteren.
There are many prizes: gold, silver and bronze medals in different categories. There will be also an audience prize and encouragement prizes.
Na twee dagen zal de jury de winnaars kiezen. Er zijn diverse prijzen:
gouden, zilveren en bronzen medailles in verschillende categorieën, een
publieksprijs en aanmoedigingsprijzen. Daarnaast maken Nederlandse
scholieren kans om hun project in het buitenland te presenteren op olympiades in Brazilië, Rusland en Amerika.

In biology “Inheritance” unit of the hereditary diseases hemophilia
disease process issues for patients with hemophilia after we woke
up the idea of what we can do. After the project idea emerged
from various sources, we’ve made the necessary research. In our
research, in this regard of this issue vine plant (grape plant) which
we have seen would be useful. How we can see this idea for this
effect? So then we started to run this idea for this effect. Kocaeli University Medical Faculty of the Central Lab employees has
received information about this topic. And this topic is stopping
blood with the help of vine leaf (grape leaf).

Project
The reason to make the swamp air cooler is that it either uses less
energy while on the other hand it operates quite naturally without
anykind of complication.
To start with, evaporative coolers add humidity to the air, while
air conditioners remove humidity. They don’t use any refrigerants
(like Freon) so they aren’t potentially damaging to the atmosphere.
Evaporative coolers provide a constant supply of fresh air, while
an air conditioner operates best in a closed environment and recirculates the same air over and over.

Our project is about to achieve natural washing water from the
coal ash of the oak tree. Our objective is to protect the water
from the harms of the remained chemical meterial and to
benefit economically.
We took some firewood of the oak tree and placed it in a container and ignit it to burn. After burning, it changes into
coal and after waiting some time the coal converts to ash. After
that we mixed the water and the ashes and we waited some
time. The water on the top is clean.

Metals having chemical and electrochemical reactions with their surroundings can go bad and become unusable, It’s called corrosion.
Many metals, especially iron, undergo corrosion when exposed to air
and water. 1/10 of all metallic materials produced every year becomes
unusable and it’s not possible to recycle them. Loss caused by corrosion
costs billions of dollars every year.
This study presents the results of corrosion resistance of ground blast
furnace slag (GBFC), chrome slag (CS) and corn stems ash (CSA).

Cement has been the major substance in preparing mortar to be used in
building practice since the beginning of 20th century. Until then mortars used were
sand-lime mortars. Although it is not as practical as
the modern mortar which contains cement, it must be accepted that it is
more environment-friendly because the production of cement in factories causes a huge amount of air pollution. This project demonstrates
how also CaCO3 can contribute to CO2 reduction by optimalisation of
clinker performance.
This project deals with the effects of air pollution on children’s health. The preliminary idea was to detect the rates of
air pollution just above the ground level. All these led in the
intent of my research, that, however air pollutants are distributed in the whole environment, the greatest amount is accumulated near the ground surface.
The conclusive idea is that being environmentally unprotected, children have a greater tendency to suffer from asthma or
probably other respiratory illnesses. The best way to prevent
this is to nestle the babies in your arms, so by increasing their
distance with the ground surface where pollutants are predominant, you can decrease their possibility to have respiratory problems. Children are more affected than adults.

Silver is among the most widely used
metals in metal industries. Because of
high cost of silver supplies in enterprises
metals coated with a thin layer of silver
are used. Galvanic technology represents
an important place in metal industry.
Production activities increasing day by
day and the development of industry, the
increasing use of galvanic technology industry supplies in metal plating factories
has provided discharge of some metals in
question into the environment with waste
water.
In this study the recovery of silver taken
from the recycled waste water of metal
plating factory and solutions prepared in
a lab was examined.

Aluminum can react with water because it is active metal. But
there is the oxide layer around aluminum and the reaction does
not occur.
Aluminum react with acids and strong bases to form hydrogen
gas, because aluminum is an amphoteric metal. It is very expensive to get hydrogen gas by this way. But aluminum cannot
react with water, which is very cheap matter and we can find it
everywhere because of oxide layer. We destroy the oxide layer by
making aluminum amalgam and the reaction starts. Aluminum will
give electron by reaction with water. These electrons will gain by
oxygen in cathode and the oxygen will be reduced. And we will
get electrochemical potential. In the same time, Al(OH)3 will be
formed by the reaction of aluminum with water.

Problems related to environment have been subject of the main discussions around the world, mainly those related to water. Water treatment
stations are essential to communities in order to get drinking water of
desirable quality. However, many stations use chemical coagulants that
result in harmful residues to environment at the end of the process. The
purpose of this project is creating a treatment station which will use the
Moringa oleifera seeds as an organic coagulant – Ecological
Water Treatment Station.

This study was designed, keeping in
mind a large number of motorcyclists
who were not using the safety helmet
and died of head injury. In 28% of
cases of death, the motorcyclists
were not using the helmet, or did the
misuse. This large number of deaths could be
minimized with proper use of the helmet, as the main cause
of death was head injury. It is noticed that the national security scenario is worrying and it is aggravated when it involves
reckless drivers and pilots. This project aims to design and
construct an electronic device or method that encourage and require all motorcyclists to use the safety helmet, and therefore greater security.

The Pediculus capitis, scientific name of the louse-give-head,
is the cause of the disease known as pediculose, could still
cause other disease, such as: epidemic typhoid fever, leukemia, irritability, aggressiveness, sleepiness of the day, disturbance alimentary, low school income, stress and cephalic
dermatite. As much the louse as his/her nit they can be found
adhered to the fibers of the fabrics of the clothes. After bibliographical research, we defined that Arruda (Ruta graveolens)
and Boldo (Peumus boldus Molina) would be the vegetables
used to remove the extracts, that associated to craft soaps
and glycerin soap, would have their applied solutions on the
louse and his/her nit to test their effectiveness and to monitor
the time elapsed for the death of both.

Nowadays, dengue virus diseases spreads causing major epidemics and bringing damage to the
world population. Control methods of Aedes aegypti become ineffective in the face of resistance
developed by the insects, and pesticides pollute
the environment if used improperly. Therefore
we need to identify alternative methods, effective and biodegradable, insect-larvicides
to combat this plague. My main objective is to
develop a method of control of A. aegypti that
surpasses conventional methods in three main
aspects: effectiveness, cost and environmental.
Project
Energy efficiency is one of the most beneficial area for researchers. Our idea is to apply a
method to increase the Efficiency of Air related
systems by considering the molecular collisions.
We studied on Windmill power output efficiency
as an area of application for our main idea. Instead of increasing the collision time and allowing more energy to be absorbed, there should
be a way to create a repulsive force between the
air molecules and the surfaces, thus may create
a repulsion force more effectively. This method
could be applied to all jet engine systems and
other energy producing machines.

The Black Sea coast is one of the most beautiful places in
the world. However galvanic and metallurgical industries annually release into the sea great quantities of valuable and scarce
substances which could be recovered from this sewage for their
industrial recycling. By the application of reagent-free, eco-pure
electrodialysis method to the salt solutions (NaCl, Na2SO4) artesian and sea water we show the feasibility of the composite
technology development for the manufacture of a number of
products and the sea water rectification from galvanic/cellulose
industry sewage.

Doctors often have to cut off the whole spleen (also called a
splenectomy) just a part of spleen from a patient because of
closed traumas in stomach area. But both of these methods
cause a problem sometimes. To resolve this problem, a specific method of operation was worked out. When the spleen is
cut off, healthy parts of it are saved and auto-transplanted in
an artificial pocket of epiploon.

Our project is about hair, its functions and how we can help it to function well. Therefore this project is about melanin. However, melanin is
not only in hair, but also it is everywhere in our skin.
The main thing is that there are a lot of diseases coming from a huge
amount of free radicals. In order to protect hair from free radicals melanin is significant, so in our project we will discuss about some diseases
and the main role of melanin in curing such diseases. As a result of our
researches we concluded that if we could find the antioxidant of those
free radicals which injure neuromelanin being the main reason of Parkinson, we can easily cure it. In coming researches it can be discovered.

Chemical insecticides like furadan etc. are harmful to soil organisms,
water bodies, and farmers. Chemicals leave residues in the soil which
are washed into streams, rivers etc. through canals. Environmentally
safe, human and soil-organism-friendly method of pest control should
be found. Thus, the use of citronella and lemon grass to control nematodes in carrot.
Our conclusion is that citronella and lemon grass are effective in the
control of nematodes in the soil. Citronella is more effective at controlling soil organism than lemon grass. However, T5 (citronella + furadan)
is the best treatment.

Waves are a result of the effects of wind on the
ocean and seas. Waves can be good resource of
renewable alternative energy. The ocean converts the gravitational forces from the celestial
bodies into mechanical energy. This kinetic
energy can be transformed following similar
rotor/turbine principles used to extract energy
from dams. The energy contained within waves
around the world is huge : in some places
values of 70 MW/km of wave front are experienced. In the theory it could then be said that
generation stations could be built which would
capture all this energy and supply all or most
of our needs.

Unconsciously, every day the human body is being exposed to
thousands of toxic. To stay healthy the body also needs the
supplies of immunity from the outside. It can be fulfilled by
consuming food. Thus, supplement is made to help making
everything in balance. The most common used raw materials to make supplement is ginseng. From that background, the
problem identifications of this paper are how the benefits and
chemical compounds differences between Javanese and Korean
ginseng are, and whether or not Javanese ginseng can be competing with Korean ginseng.

The technology development, particularly
in industries sector, has caused great
impact towards our nation’s economic
growth but also towards our environment.
Water pollution is the topic that we will
discuss in this project. The level of pollution at water can reduce by some treatment that is called purification. There are
many kind of purification process, one of
them is purification using plants as purifier, and we are also know it as fitoremediation. The plants have ability to absorb
a metal that dissolved on water so that
the metal level on the water can be decreased.

Project
Packaging for food product is extremely important in term of preserving the quality of the food and various dairy products because
of its role in preserving humidity, gas and scent and other various elements from the products to the environment and vice versa.
So far in Indonesia, packaging is still very dependant to the use of
plastics, which made of petroleum such as polystyrene and polyethylene. Plastics made of petroleum is not bio-degradable, which later,
the waste material will pollute the environment. Therefore, there is
an urgency to find alternatives that have similar important feature as
plastics that has the ability to degrade biologically (biodegradable),
which is also edible. Jackfruit seed can be processed into an edible
film that is also environment friendly.

In our project, we try to use lemon as a purifier of water
from calcium carbonate and as a neutralizer of water contaminated with basic solution and as a destroyer of several
types of bacteria found in the water and all of these tasks
are preformed due to the Citric acid, which is found in the
lemon juice.
Fossil fuel cause global warming and air pollution. Nowadays fossil fuels are decline and energy security risk. So bio
fuel is alternative fuel and Eco friendly. Biofuel derived from
biomass which is renewable, low cost, easily available carbon source and low green house gases emission. So our research produce biofuel from microalgae by using yeast that
grows on microalgae and produces Ethanol. As a result we
produce biofuel from algae that is an alternative fuel source.

samples which obtain swapping of keyboard, mouse and
headphones from different computers at different locations;
3. after collecting the samples we put it in the incubator for
incubating; and 4. after incubation we noticed that there
were so many pathogenic bacteria on the swaps that we took
from the computers that we proved that computers are one
of the main sources for transmission of pathogenic bacteria
that has been ignored by people and no one has paid attention before.

It is known since a long time, that the hazardous influence
of the electric-magnet rays to the human organism causes
reversible and irreversible changes. After the influence of the
electric-magnet rays, you can notice slowing down of the
human organism reflexes, lowering of the blood pressure,
slowing down of heart beat, damage of the organism physiological, biochemical processes, also changes in the blood
vessel functioning. Our research work is connected with
physical research of the influence of electric-magnet rays
to the water, to water solutions of DNA molecular, including
hazardous impact of the cell phones to the human organism
and the methods of protection.

from the oil-gas raw material of the Tengiz deposit has been
investigated. It has been stated that pretreating of the Tengiz
sulphur with the 0,3% sodium hydroxide solution positively
influences the reaction velocity. The accelerating role of the
sodium hydroxide solution can be interpreted as the ability
of the hydroxide ions to activate the sulphur atoms resulting
in the formation of the intermediate compounds – polysulphide that catalyst of the sodium and ammonium tiosulphate
formation.

Subject of this research is phenol extracts, being the waste of process
of selective clearing of petrol oil. At clearing oils for increasing of viscosity index and decreasing the content of carbon resinous substances
and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are deleted. The purpose of this
work is the development of technological decisions on rational processing for useful products to reduce the petrol oil production waste
– the phenol extract.
Project
Our aim is to stop our environment from getting worse. To
stop processes such as global warming and thickening of
ozone layer new alternative energy sources must be used. It
is very important that use of these sources don’t affect our
environment. After having made a lot of research work we
came to the conclusion that following energy sources can replace old ones, which have made a lot of damage during last
several decades. These are: wind, solar and fuel energy.

Biodiesel is one of the many alternative fuel options that can performed in reducing oil dependence and has many advantages. As
biofuels are getting so popular, a process for the production of ethyl
ester from used frying oil for use as biodiesel fuel studied and can be
new alternative biofuel which carries many benefits when compared
to diesel.
Tea is one the most important non-alcoholic beverage drinks
worldwide and gaining further popularity as an important
“health drink”. Tea leaf contains large amounts of potentially
metal-chelating substances which could remain in the wastes
after extraction by hot water. According to the experimental
data, we concluded that the amount of EGCG extracted from
waste tea leaves increased as the temperature increased, while
the amount of caffeine extracted increased as the temperature, and extraction time increased.

The development of uranium in Kyrgyzstan continued until 1968. At
present uranium mines are closed, but around them they remained
many radioactive tailings dumps. They continue to present threat for
the animal and flora and, especially for human beings. The simple method of decreasing the volume of tailings dumps and their
subsequent liquidation by using the fundamentally new pro-
cedure of the sorting of contents of uranium tailings dumps is proposed. This new method intends to produce sorting with the aid of the automatic conveyor belt equipped with a special mechanism, which makes it possible to distribute the
radioactive species of uranium tailings dumps depending on the power of y- radiation.

As the world’s energy resources are reducing constantly, it is very
important for us to find new alternative energy resources. From the
several existent types of energy we decided to examine all the aspects, so that we could choose the energy that would show the best
economic factors as well as the most important issue- the bio-fuel
that would be the most eco-friendly. (Moreover, by converting the
directly fermentable sugars of bananas and peaches we managed to
derive the bio-fuel we expected, alcohol from organic matter, to be
precise, at the same time using fruit which is misshapen and rottennot fresh to eat).
Project
The purpose of this project is to present a new type of a bioplastic, a
plastic that is not derived from petroleum and a plastic that is biodegradable at the same time. The advantage is that this plastic will not
take up space on the landfills forever because we can compost
the bioplastic (natural degradation in record times). With this
we solve the problem of having way to much waste and not
having anywhere to put it and also in the process we don’t
destroy precious agriculture areas, which we have less and

The iron sludge waste that is generated by some industries as a byproduct is identified as a hazardous solid waste under the Hazardous Wastes
Management & Handling. The use and disposal of cyanide solutions used
to dissolve and extract gold from ore is another environmental concern.
This project discusses new strategies for the disposal of iron sludge and
cyanide effluents, particularly the “converting into fertilizer” strategy and
the “use in soil” strategy. In the first case we find the effective, easy and cheap method to decontaminate and reduce the potential environ-
mental impact of iron ore wastes-iron sludge and cyanide
effluents by converting them into nitrogen rich and iron rich
fertilizers. In the second part of our project we examine if the products of these wastes are used in soils to which extend will they affect the quality of plant products.

Project
In order to provide a solution for the upcoming worldwide fuel crisis in
the future, new methods for production of biofuels are being rapidly
developed. More importantly, there is an unstopping demand for new
sources that would allow cheap and effective production of these fuels. As
an alternative, we propose using spent coffee grounds, an unusable waste
material daily “produced” in almost every home on the planet. Coffee
beans have the same oil amount as other crops that have been used for
production of biodiesel up until now, yet they produce a more stable and
long-lasting fuel than the most of them.

process. This option is very effective as the source of CF is readily
available and abundant throughout the world. They are 9.08 billion CF
produced in our world every single day.
From the data, we can conclude that the CF which goes through drying,
chopping and pulverizing process produces highest voltage. We concluded that the pulverized CF is totally proven produces highest voltage
and calorific value. The CF shows a greater energy source in the form of

Nowadays mobile phone technology is very common. The demand for
mobile communication services is globally on the rise. This rise of the
usage of mobile phones is not harmless for the environment, indeed
the energy used for charging them is a lot and so is its CO₂ footprint.
If we could charge our mobile phones with energy from any daily activity that doesn’t emit CO₂, then we could be saving millions of CO₂
kilograms and the CO₂ footprint of the charge of mobile phones will
be eliminated.

in the first cooling stage, usually inconveniences present themselves,
such as: the partial cooling of the medium, and sometimes the formation of bubbles and lumps which cause discharge in the petri plates.
Therefore our goal is to design a receptacle that functions as a useful tool in the preparation of culture media and that facilitates a better
cooling of the medium during the preparation process, avoiding contamination risks before and after the opening of the plates, allowing for
the possibility to perform bacteriological studies with the best precision, speed and confidence in the results.

If you connect two electric motors, and spin by hand one of
them (no electric source or power generator needed), what will
happen? The other one will also spin, because of induction.
Basically, according to this theory, every electric motor can very
easily become an electric generator, some of them even being
able to generate, at specific speeds, up to 80% of the energy
required to make it spin (when powered from a battery). Now
imagine the same concept in an electric car. Power can now be
regenerated from many things, such as breaking and cruising,
even from using only a part of the motors while the others serve
as generators. This can improve the energy use by almost 50%.

efficient, clean and alternative option to produce electrical energy. We
concluded that sodium boro hydride method is ideal for both small
scale projects like science projects and more advanced applications like
hybrid-automobiles, home or city power generators etc. The mechanism
is clear and cheap enough for students and amateurs as well as
professional researchers to develop and apply in new applications.

The purpose of the experiment was to develop a novel environmentally
friendly method for the biodiesel production from waste cooking sunflower oil. This method was developed using sodium hydroxide catalyzed two step transesterification reaction. In this work waste cooking
oil collected from apartments ín our school dictrict was used. It does not
require water washing, bleaching earth treatment, or ion exchange resin
for removal of soap and remaining catalyst. The ferric sulfate used for
the FFA conversion was recovered. It is simple yet effective and economical and environmentally friendly.

Forests are running out very quickly and they are under serious danger. Lumber and lumber products which are used in every area in our
lives are the biggest reason of this. Turkmenistan imports all lumber
and fiberboard products from other countries. At the same time our
country is one of the leading cotton producers in the world. Our aim
is to produce MDF and fiberboard using cotton stems alternative to
lumber and to contribute the economy of our country by reducing the
import figures in this industry, and to
evaluate the cotton stems and recycle
them to be used in furniture industry.
And also to protect the environment
from being polluted by recycling the
cotton stems instead of burning.

compounds and elements according to the structure of soil. From
this point of view some desert plants which grow in Turkmenistan, such as calligonum, saxaul, camelthorn and tarragon
ashes. As a result, it’s seen that calligonum keeps 98.8 mg/
kg of cupper, 97.9 mg/kg of zinc and 29.5 mg/kg of nickel.
Tarragon keeps the most amount of zinc among plants, that
is, 114.9 mg/kg.

Electrochemical remediation of AMD - A

School: Supervisor: Student: North County High School
Karen Gruner

Project
This project uses the bioluminescent organism Vibrio fischeri to detect
bio-available water pollutants in the Stony Creek watershed. Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism.
The light is produced through a chemical reaction between the substrate luciferin and the enzyme luciferase. Differences in the amount
of light produced can therefore be correlated to the organism’s metabolism. The reduction of light emitted is proportional to the toxicity
of the aquatic sample. The hypothesis formed was that Vibrio fischeri
could detect the water pollution because they would cause a decrease
in light intensity, which could be measured to find the bioavailability
of the water pollutants in the sample.
Project
This project studies the possibility of mitigating the adverse environmental effects of acid mine drainage (AMD) by using electrochemical treatment to raise the pH, harvest dissolved metals
and produce hydrogen as an energy source. It was hypothesized
that by using electrolysis the free hydrogen ions could be removed from the AMD and collected as hydrogen gas to be used
as an energy source while reducing the acidity. Raising the pH
would also precipitate metals out of solution, removing them
from being an environmental pollutant. Using a two-chamber
electrolysis cell with a removable ion exchange membrane, tests
were performed to compare the change in pH and conductivity
when the AMD was placed in the anode, the cathode, or both
cell chambers. Hydrogen gas production was also measured.

Tillamook has an economy that bases itself on two major industries; logging and dairy farming. Disposal of bovine fecal waste
is a constant problem for local farmers. A methane digester converts this to methane gas to produce electricity. The byproduct
of this process is a sterile liquid and a sterile pulp. The sterile
pulp can be compressed into
fuel bricks for burning in a wood stove. I tested both the methane
digested pulp against sawdust bricks to compare density, ash
content, and heat output. The result showed that the methane
digested pulp brisk had a comparable heat output to the
sawdust brick though the pulp brick had a slightly higher ash
content.

The most common example of electromagnetic powered vehicles, are the Magnetic Levitation trains in Japan and China.
We decided to develop something completely different, since
building ‘maglev’ trains has been done over and over. Eventually we developed a car that drives by pulling/pushing itself on
to/from different magnets under the road surface. The final
model is a finetuned version of the prototype and this model
has turned out to be a small vehicle/car, about the size of a
shoebox, that is driven by the attraction/repulsion of magnets
on a track specifically designed for this mechanism.

With our project ‘Fartenergy’ we want to reduce the methane
output of mankind. Methane (CH4) is 23 times more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas, so it provides a large part
of the global warming effect. When a cow breaks wind, the
gas it releases contains a lot of CH4. All 1,5 billion cows on
earth cause about 4 to 9% of global warming, which is about
the same amount as all manmade vehicles like cars, trucks
and planes produce together! We want to collect the methane
to produce energy and in this way reduce global warming. We
calculated that we can collect about 11 tons of methane per
year from a farm with 100 cows.

Most of the time people do not realize how bad plastic actually is for
our environment. We broadened our knowledge of the existence of
‘the Great Pacific Garbage Patch’: a pile of plastic litter floating in the
Pacific Ocean. The Patch has been very harmful for the environment.
The plastic could not be biodegraded by the ocean but it could be degraded by UV-radiance of the sun. The waste products exist of extreme
small parts sink into deeper water. Those small parts will be regarded
as plankton by animals that live in the sea and they will eat it. In this
way these animals will be poisoned.
We also examined by what environmentally friendly material the plastic could be replaced. We compared Hemp cloth, cornstarch cloth
(biobag®), cotton and plastic by testing these goods to combustibility
and defensibility. Hemp cloth showed the best scores. Our conclusion
is that Hemp cloth is better than plastic at several levels, but it has a
more expensive production process. The Hemp industry will evolve
slowly, therefore the price of the production and product will decline
due to increasing competition.

Falling rain is very energiefull. Per year 800 mL drops down. We want
to get energy out of the rain by putting water wheels in drainpipes.
We can set this by buildings with enormous surfaces like commercial
properties. Everytime when it rains the wheels are going to spin and so
we realise energy.
Our idea is to make a solar panel which will follow the sun.
The panel will be able to cant horizontally and vertical to
gain the highest return. You’ll gain the highest return when
de sunrays drop perpendicular on the surface of the panel.
For the topplings we’ll use a mainboard and light sensors
which respond on the sunlight dropping on the surface of
the light sensors. When there isn’t falling enough light on
the sensors, the mainboard will be given a sign and the
panel will start to cant.

Energy will become more and more scarce. Therefore it is important
to use energy as effcient as possible. In this research, several ways of
saving energy have been investigated. A new way of harvesting energy from the sun is also described. The project as submitted for this
competition, is a elaboration of a physics project in highschool.
The investigation is a casestudy, while focusing on a real life situation. Literature has been studied, so as to see what is state-of-theart. That led to the idea of using even more efficient solar panels,
which also use ultraviolet radiation. In this investigation, several ways
of saving energy on a house level have been looked at. One can think
of using solar energy, smart ventilation or using a “green roof”. Both
the energy saving, as well as the economical aspect have been looked
at. This has led to several options to improve energy efficiency on a
house level and even a novel way of harvesting energy from the sun.

we must find innovative energy sources. We must find sources from
which energy can be converted in useful one. In our project we translate the energy instead of producing it. Even we don’t realize there is
a huge amount of energy. If we can concentrate this heat energy in
a certain place, we can use it without producing a new one. In order
to understand the amount of energy that is possible to transfer from
outside, we can compare atmosphere.
with the buildings that we live. Atmosphere has how much energy
ever we want. We are going to use just a little amount of this energy
